koby476786466 idk why i love it i just do Favorite track: Echoes of Knowledge In Ancient Stone.

Wound of Briccius An awesome, old-school Dungeon Synth album all around! It's old, dark, foreboding, and sounds like it came straight out of the 90s (well, I mean it did anyway). Cernunnos Woods isn't exactly everyone's cup of tea, but I really like this album, and you should give it a shot if you're a Dungeon Synth fan. Favorite track: Into Glory We Ride.

csb999 I can't stop listening to this album. it makes me want to pack up my synthesizer because everything worth saying got addressed in this album.

Andrea Bartuz Isutra This record is among those that changed my way of understanding music and ignited the flame of DS music in me and inspired the birth of my Arcana Liturgia project. Awaken the empire of Dark Wood is a mystical record, very particular, which must be listened to and savored with attention. Bard Algol's voice is absolutely incredible and fits perfectly with the dark and minimal atmospheres of the entire album. A classic to discover / rediscover. Favorite track: Dark and Ancient Visions.

If nostalgia for an age where creatures of myth walked together with the children of men had a soundtrack, this album would be it. Also, a touching reminder that we can forego wealth and power for wilderness and freedom, if we so choose. emanuele127
